GHGm and BBI Biofuels Canada collaborated and successfully completed a key contract with Environment Canada on the “Quantification of Environmental Emissions from Conventional Biodiesel Production.” Working with an operating biodiesel facility, and using firsthand knowledge of the industry, GHGm and BBI provided a framework for emissions quantification to be used to improve Environment Canada’s capacity to predict, identify, and assess a range of environmental, regulatory, technical, and scientific issues. The final report provided a modeled quantification of emissions, addressed best practices in the biodiesel industry, and discussed issues of concern that would likely to be raised by an anticipated and dramatic increase in use of biomass for production of industrial chemicals and transportation fuels in Canada.
